GLASGOW RANGERS are the latest club to cast a covetous eye at David Unsworth.

GLASGOW RANGERS are the latest club to cast a covetous eye at David Unsworth.

A report in Scotland this morning stated that the Glasgow giants are preparing to make an offer for the defender who will become a free agent next month.

Rangers have watched Unsworth, (right), four times in the past two months, and with Henning Berg retiring, Frank de Boer expected to leave this summer and skipper Craig Moore undergoing a sixth knee operation in the close season, the Gers are seeking defensive reinforcements.

Jean-Alain Boumsong has already been snapped up from Auxerre, while Trinidadian international Marvin Andrews has been signed from Livingston.

But Alex McLeish is still keen to add one more defender to his squad.

Unsworth still hopes Everton will offer him a new deal this summer, after he rejected outright an initial one- year extension.

But he would undoubtedly be tempted by an approach from the Scottish club.

The defender, who has also been linked with a summer move to Bolton Wanderers, recently celebrated his 300th appearance for the Blues and skippered the side in their recent outing against Tottenham.
